seeking answers

There is only one thing which is needed above all to say, and that is:
'Love the lord thy God with all thy strength and all thy heart and all thy mind and all thy soul.'
But what is love? Not the inadequate dictionary definition , but what is the better definition of love?
And who is "God"? What is the actual nature of God? Not what they tell you in religion or philosophy but what is the true nature of God?

It is good to begin with questions. Answers are a dead end, a blind alley with nowhere left to go except backwards.
The day you die is the day you stop asking and stop learning. The day you stop learning is the day you die. The day you stop asking questions is the day you die.
Questions lead somewhere, questions draw us forward, forward to answers we never knew existed, forward to a future we cannot imagine -- and that's life.
Life is going somewhere where you've never been before. And you dont know where your going except you know its wonderful beyond words.
-----
And you can only get there one step at a time, one question at a time.
-----
Questions lead to answers that surprise, and the surprising nature of the answers stimulate your mind to ask further questions: like the seed of a giant tree planted in the soil you are beginning to grow.
-----
Because one loves God with all their soul, one does not accept answers from anybody else.

How does one tell what the actual truth is?
Pleasure tells us we have found truth. Pain tells us we are doing something wrong.
Excitement, because it is a percentage of pain mixed with a percentage of pleasure, tells us nothing at all; the pain and the pleasure cancel each other out: the foundation for Nihilsm and Atheist belief: 'stuff happens' then you die.
Nothingness: no taste, no smell, no pitch, no shape, no color: tastelessness, smelllessness, pitchlessness, shapelessness, colorless, experience.
But excitement is something: it is intense touch, acrid smell, loud sound, big size and bright light. So excitement is total happening, intense and impressive; its just that it is utterly meaningless: excitement as an end in itself is nothingness.
-----
Hence an old person looks back and says: (if they have any mind left at all) 'What happened? It seems just like yesterday I was a small boy (or girl) playing in the garden, and now my life is over.'
-----
(Its well known a student who crams for exams forgets a large part of what they learned in less than two weeks.)
-----
Excitement is like a big blank concrete wall that is huge. It has no shape nor color -- but boy is it big! Or like a really loud sound: it has no music nor pitch but boy is it loud!
-----
Whats the use of intense sex with no taste, for example?
-----
Whats the use of an exciting life if it is totally forgetable? You look back and your sure something happened but your just not sure what it was. Excitement has no memory because it is nothing.
-----
But what is it that is '...wonderful beyond words.'?
There are metaphors, for example: There are many stars in the sky and one of them is yours.

To love God is all that is needed, for everything else follows from that automatically. God is ultra general super precise and super vital. The mind is silent because we cannot know when to be precise and when to be vital and when general, God knows. It would be pettiness to insist on being precise at all times.
